printr

This is a companion package to knitr. Its main purpose is to extend the S3 generic function knit_print() in knitr, which is the default value of the chunk option render, as explained in the vignette knit_print.html.

You can install the stable version from CRAN or the development version from my personal repo:

# CRAN version
install.packages('printr')

# or the dev version
install.packages(
  'printr',
  repos = c('https://yihui.r-universe.dev', 'https://cran.rstudio.com')
)

To enable the printing methods defined in this package, just library(printr) in a code chunk (in the beginning) of your knitr document. Then some objects will be printed differently with what you would have seen in a normal R console. For example:

• matrices, data frames, and contingency tables are printed as tables (LaTeX, HTML, or Markdown, depending on your output format)
• the help page (from ?foo or help(foo)) can be rendered as HTML, LaTeX, or plain text, and you can also specify which section(s) of the help page to include in the output
• the results from browseVignettes(), help.search(), data(), and vignette() are rendered as tables
• the package information from library(help = 'foo') is rendered as plain text

For more information, please check out the package vignette:

vignette('printr', package = 'printr')

You are welcome to contribute more S3 methods to this package, and you may want to read the existing methods in this package before you get started. In most cases, I guess you will end up rendering either plain text (see knit_print.packageInfo for example) or tables (see knit_print.matrix) in the output.

These binaries (installable software) and packages are in development.
They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
